See, ask, understand

Photos & screenshots

Take a picture of anything (a letter, menu, diagram, bill, or object) then ask questions like you would with a person: “What is this?”, “Summarise this in 3 bullets”, or “Translate and explain the key parts.”

1. Overview

What is InfoLens Image Identifier?

InfoLens Image Identifier is an AI powered visual assistant. Instead of hunting through search results, you simply share a picture and have a conversation about it.

With Image Identifier you can

  • Take or upload a picture of anything that’s confusing, interesting, or important.
  • Ask questions in plain language, no prompt engineering needed.
  • Get clear, conversational answers about what’s in the image.

It works across objects, products, plants, documents, screenshots, signs, menus, notes, graphs, and more. The camera becomes your starting point whenever you’re curious or stuck.

Instead of “searching the internet,” you’re simply chatting about a picture.

1.2 In the InfoLens family

Where it fits in the InfoLens ecosystem

  • Image Identifier: focuses on visual understanding (what you see, read, or capture).
  • AI Voice Assistant: focuses on natural voice conversations for planning, learning, and deep thinking.

2. Who it’s for

Built for anyone who works with images, documents, or visual information

From students to professionals, travellers to everyday curious users, Image Identifier is designed to be a calm, helpful companion whenever you’re looking at something and thinking: “What does this mean?”.

Students & lifelong learners

Snap textbook pages, diagrams, or lecture slides and ask for simplified explanations. Turn graphs into plain language summaries, or ask the experience to quiz you on what’s in the image.

Professionals & knowledge workers

Quickly understand reports, contracts, letters, or PDFs when you don’t have time to read every line. Capture whiteboards or meeting notes and turn them into bullet points or action items.

Travellers & explorers

Photograph menus, signs, labels, or transport boards in other languages and get instant translations and recommendations. This includes dietary preferences, spice levels, or budget.

Everyday curious users

Identify objects around the house, in the garden, or in the wild. Read and explain instructions, packaging, and labels, or simply use it as a visual “explain this to me” tool.

3. Use cases

What you can do with Image Identifier

Identify objects, products, plants & landmarks

Point your camera or upload a photo to identify what you’re looking at and ask follow up questions.

  • Recognise everyday objects, tools, gadgets, and hardware parts.
  • Identify plants and get basic care advice.
  • Spot landmarks or places and learn more about them.

Read & simplify documents, letters & reports

Turn long letters, bills, forms, or reports into short, understandable summaries that highlight what matters.

  • Ask for bullet point summaries and “main thing I need to know”.
  • Highlight deadlines and important sections to reread yourself.
  • Remember: this is not legal, medical, or financial advice (just clarity).

Understand screenshots, slides & handwritten notes

Use screenshots, slides, and notes as inputs to get structure and clarity.

  • Summarise slides and dashboards into “what’s the key takeaway?”.
  • Turn handwritten notes into tidy to do lists or organised summaries.

When text is trapped in an image, Image Identifier can read and translate it.

  • Ask for recommendations based on your preferences or restrictions.
  • Get explanations for unfamiliar ingredients or phrases.

Turn dense visual material into explanations at the right level.

  • Ask to be quizzed on the content to reinforce learning.
  • Break complex diagrams into step by step logic.

4. Key features

Built for clarity, not just recognition

Image to chat

The core loop is simple: image → question → conversational answer.

Powerful text understanding built in.

  • Read text from photos, scans, and screenshots (OCR).
  • Summarise long passages into short, digestible points.
  • Translate between languages and explain unfamiliar terms.

Follow up questions & deeper conversations

It’s not a one shot scanner, it’s a conversation about what you see.

  • Refine answers: “focus only on the last paragraph”.
  • Compare parts: “what’s different between the first and last section?”.
  • Extract risks, pros and cons, or key decisions mentioned.

History & recently analysed images

Designed with human first privacy in mind
